Gen. Butler then proceeded to a copaid-

More Popular with his Party.

During the past month or two change
in the attitude of the democratic party to
ward the President has been witnessed.
The causes which led to this conversion
have for many months existed but have
not been recognized BY the rank and file
Of the party. The ingenious methods en-
ployed By the president to cover up his
motions were very successful. For a
long time il was matter OF speculation
to the party whether Mr.. Cleveland was
a free trader and no. until substantial
proofs were given did it realize its for
tune. The wholesale removals OF repuo-
licans from Office were made so quietly that
when IL was announced that more than nine
tenths were filed By democrats the sur
prise occasioned was most apparent Inc
disclosure OF this extensive division oil the
spoils indicated more-a breaking OF faith
with the mugwumps. Tn was emphasize
by the difficulties arising between the
President aud Sec Endcott. the only cab
met representative from the mugwumps.
The Presidents attack upon the Grand
Army and his recognition OF Tammany
also had a great effect upon elements
of the party. The plans of the President,
to solidify the party have proved more
successful than even he probably anticpa-
ted although all is no, secure yet. Inc
South is divided on the tariff question with
a growing preference for protection and
Tammany is like balky mule, very un-
certain. But upon the whole there has
been an increase of party favor tor the
President which may be utilized if shrewd-
ly handled to his advantage.

and such appears to be the case in regard
10 the cause OF the Mormon convention for
the avowed purpose Of framing cousti,u-
ton by which to gain admission to the Union

paper In substance says that there are
evidences at hand which tend to show
that the Mormons are acting upon assur.
anees from the democratic party and that
the anti polygsmy section in their new
constitution is \ condition of support.
This statement seems very probable when
considered carefully and in connection
with the course the President has taken
In regard to these people. For it has
been matter Of comment that the admin
istratiou has not adopted very stringen,
measures against the evils in Utah nor
has endeavored to fully execute the laws
prohibiting polygamy. And again con-
siderable probability is attached to the
statement from the fact that the democrats
have always been in favor OF State rights
and championed any cause that tended
thereto. II is also well known that the
